About Me

Welcome to my food blog and thanks for visting! I decided to start this food blog because I felt it was time for me to start documenting my cooking peaks and valleys. I love food (probably too much!) and I enjoy feeding my friends and family delicious meals. It's since evolved into a place to not only share what I'm cooking, but note worthy restaurants I enjoy both locally here in Michigan and throughout my travels.

I hope that my blog brings inspiration and motivation for others to start cooking! I read many food blogs that have awesome photography. That has inspired me to work toward having a blog with gorgeous pictures that are just as beautiful as how the food taste. Food photography is now on my list of things to learn! Be patient with my photography...I have a steep learning curve! :-)

While some of the items I review may be provided to me from various companies, all thoughts and opinions are my own and brutally honest. If a product has been provided to me for reviewing purposes, a disclaimer is noted in the review post. For items purchased by me, there isn't a disclaimer.

Thank you,

~Tamara

The space was very eclectic featuring musical decor all around. The space is open and modern with the exposed ceiling beams. It also has a slightly modern vibe, which I found very aesthetically pleasing.

The food was just amazing. I had the The Nashville Hot Chicken and Waffles. The chicken was a nice thick cut of chicken breast, cooked perfectly. The waffles were crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside. It was topped with a sweet cinnamon butter compound and served with a side of syrup. The savory and sweet combo was excellent. I actually wouldn't have minded some hot sauce on the chicken to offset t…

After watching Bethenny talk about this Skinny Girl Margarita week after week on her Bravo reality show I really wanted to see what all the hype was about. Turns out this stuff is hard to find in Michigan. It isn’t in the regular grocery stores or liquor stores. I got it from a store called Plum Market in West Bloomfield Township. Plum Market is high end (aka expensive) store that sells specialty items and foods that are natural, organic, and local. It was pretty pricey for a bottle that isn’t very big. This bottle retails for $16, I got it for $12.86 plus tax. Actually come to find out, a few days after I purchased it, I spotted a few bottles in the Meijers store. Same price.

I was able to check this out just in time for Cinco De Mayo!! For those who are obedient about reducing the calories in everything you consume you may want to check out this drink. Here’s the stats: 37.5 calories per serving, one serving is 1.5 ounces. Consider the size of a regular Margarita glass. The avera…
